Abstract:
In a gear pump, a gear chamber is defined in a housing hole of a housing. A pair of gears is housed in the gear chamber. The gears are rotatably supported at support holes of a pair of side plates via support shafts. As viewed in an axial direction of the support shafts during rotation of the gears, addendum circles of the gears displaced under a differential pressure between a low-pressure chamber and a high-pressure chamber form first contact points with respect to an inner peripheral surface that defines a housing hole. As viewed in the axial direction of the support shafts during rotation of the gears, the first contact points are covered with the side plates displaced under the differential pressure.
Abstract:
A pump includes a front plate, a gear plate and a rear plate. A drive shaft has a drive gear, an arbor has a driven gear engaged with the drive gear, and first and second bearings are disposed in the gear plate. The first and second bearings receive the drive shaft and the arbor. The rear plate has drain ports adjacent ends of the drive shaft and the arbor. The arbor has an opening such that media that passes between the first bearing and an outer surface of the arbor is directed to the second drain port via the opening. A drain bushing is positioned against the front plate, and includes an opening for the drive shaft. The drain bushing has a chamber and a radial port. When pumped media passes between the first bearing and the drive shaft it is directed to the chamber and out the radial port.
Abstract:
A progressive cavity pump comprising a casing, a helical stator including a helical cylinder and a helical rotor capable of rotating inside said helical cylinder. The helical stator also comprises at least one compensator arranged in said casing, between the casing and said helical cylinder; said helical cylinder and said compensator being deformable in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the casing.
Abstract:
A rotary vane pump for delivering a fluid, having a delivery device accommodated in a casing (2), a casing cover (3) arranged on one end face, and optionally with a bearing flange (4) adjoining the casing (2) on the side opposite to the casing cover (3). A seal (5,6) is arranged between the casing (2) and the casing cover (3) and optionally between the casing (2) and the bearing flange (4), and the seal (5,6) is inserted into a groove (8,9) formed in the casing cover (3), and optionally in the bearing flange (4), and/or in the respective end face (7) of casing (2). Also a leakage path (13) for the fluid extends between a delivery side (11) and suction side (12). The leakage path (13) extends on the inner side (14) of the seal at least in sections parallel to the seal (5,6).
Abstract:
An improved, high-pressure fluid draining, internal gear hydraulic device of the type having a rotatable valve plate which selectively communicates inlet and outlet ports of a commutator with opening and closing fluid chambers between internal and external gear. The valve plate has radially extending drain ports which drain high pressure fluid from the area inside the valve plate to a check valve system outside the valve plate. This check valve system can drain to a low pressure fluid port of the device such as the inlet or outlet of the pump.
Abstract:
An improved screw pump such as, for example, a twin screw pump is disclosed. In one embodiment, the screw pump includes a casing, first and second intermeshing rotors, and a liner positioned between the first and second rotors and the casing. In use, the liner is arranged and configured to bend and/or pivot in unison with the first and second rotors under the axial hydraulic pressure experienced by the screw pump during use. In one embodiment, the liner may be arranged and configured to include an asymmetric axial stiffness to facilitate bending of the liner. In another embodiment, the liner may be arranged and configured in multiple segments, the segments being arranged and configured to pivot to approximate the bending of the rotor shafts.
Abstract:
A positive-displacement pump (10) of the type comprising a driving gear (12) and a driven gear (14) perfectly coupled together and each mounted on a respective support shaft (16, 18). The driving gear (12) is operatively connected to a motor (20) to set the driven gear (14) in rotation and generate the pumping action on a fluid. The gears (12, 14) are contained in a chamber (40) provided with a closing plate (42). The support shafts (16, 18), the central body (38) of the pump (10), the chamber (40) that contains the gears (12, 14), the closing plate (42) of such a chamber (40), an inner magnet (36) and the base of the rear body (28) of the pump (10) are in turn housed inside a casing (30) of the pump (10).
Abstract:
A pump drip collector is easily provided to a pump housing of a particular shape. A cylindrical drum of L-shaped cross section, incapable of serving as a drip collector by itself, is adapted to be freely pressed over a cylindrical protrusion from a flat face of the pump housing. When a circular end edge of the drum engages the face, it is spun welded in place. Thereafter, the drum and pump face together provide a complete drip collector. The drum may also pilot on the outside of the protrusion to maintain concentricity during the spinning process.
Abstract:
A rotary fluid pressure device is disclosed of the type including a gerotor displacement mechanism (17), a rotary valve member (55), and a valve seating mechanism (75). The valve seating mechanism includes a balancing ring member (77) seated in an annular groove (81) defined by the valve housing (21). Leakage fluid from the gerotor displacement mechanism passes from the central case drain region (83) through the bearings (33 and 35) to an annular chamber (87). The leakage fluid is communicated from the annular chamber (87) to whichever of the ports (75 or 61) is connected to the system reservoir, through a series of fluid passages (131, 133, 135, 137, and 139). The fluid passage (139) communicates with the annular groove (81), and the leakage fluid flows past whichever of the balancing ring seals (143 or 145) is subjected to low pressure fluid, the balancing ring seal thus acting as a check valve. The invention eliminates the complicated and expensive prior art check valve assemblies (103, 105).
